Another YouGov survey done about this election, just a few more and I'll get my £50 cheque. Yes folks, you get paid

Ok it is now officially my birthday and I am now 21.

TordelBack · 05 May, 2010, 12:37:02 AM

Congrats Cyberleader, that's a big one! Hope you don't get horribly horribly drunk and make successive passes at almost all your female friends, with mixed results, like this, um, guy I know did. Actually I hope you do (because it was fun both at the time and now in retrospect, if not in the days immediately following... he tells me), but I hope you get lots of Gundams too. Give you something to do when you can't face anyone for a week or two...

Happy birthday, Cyberleader2000.

And congratulations Tordelback on your mixed results with female friends way back.

Better mixed results than all rebuffs.

Happy Birthday Cyberleader. Make sure you get properly wasted mate.

What Richmond said!

Also Happy Birthday

TordelBack · 05 May, 2010, 10:08:13 AM

Ah, 21 wasn't so great. Sure everything worked, and all the parts were still in the right place but you'd no idea how to use the thing.

In addition to now not being bounced from the highest profile US book I've worked on to date, I think I've mustered the finance for a Cintiq.

I think a celebratory libation at a local hostelry may be in order. :-)

Cheers!

I was just paid 25 quid this afternoon for tipping off a friend who is a collector about something i spotted in a local flea market which they bought.

I had a feeling that there was something of value in there and i was right because i have a sixth sense for that kind of thing and if there is anything of value i will find it.

It was an 18th cent/1st quarter 19th cent German Westerwauld export pot initialled with GR.

The collector friend is thrilled to bits with it.

Its just about having a trained eye for that kind of thing because Antiques are one of my interests.

Heres a link showing you some examples:
